Food Logistics

When paths grow together
A dense traffic network, profound knowledge of the market, top quality standards and the use of state-of-the-art technologies form the basis for ShuttleBridge’s transport logistics.ShuttleBridger has perfected its function as a logistics link for the foodstuffs industry through many years of partnership with a long list of food producers and leading retail companies.
The advantages of our logistics services for industry and retailers:

- High availability of goods and reduction of inventories thanks to deliveries made each working day.
- Standardization through electronic data interchange and transport labels created in accordance with EAN128.
- Transparency thanks to a seamless, barcode-supported process (Tracking & Tracing) and automated temperature documentation.
- Reliability provided by highly coordinated workflows, permanent points of contact and centralized administration of delivery restrictions for all retail warehouses (product lines, time slots, special equipment)
- Highly reliable delivery even during four-day weeks, at seasonal peak times and during promotional campaigns thanks to proactive planning (loading space and personnel capacities; time slots including early, night and Saturday delivery)
- Food safety ensured by state-of-the-art refrigeration equipment, batch tracking and strict quality management (IFS Logistic – higher level)
